Mystical Date for Da Vinci Appeal

Submitted by Greg on Fri, 2006-09-01 10:16

The Bookseller has reported that the date for Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh's appeal hearing (in regards to the 'Da Vinci copyright case') has been set. Even Baigent and Leigh would have to grin about the date set:

The Court of Appeal has set provisional dates for the re-opening of the Da Vinci Code trial for 16th and 17th January next year. Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh--the authors who attempted to sue Random House for breach of copyright after claims that Dan Brown had plagiarised their work, The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail--were granted leave to appeal the High Court judgement in July.

As enthusiasts for the Priory of Sion/Rennes le Chateau mystery would know, January 17 is a most auspicious date.

More January 17 dates

That really is an amazing coincidence about that court date, staggers the mind. Almost every new thing connected with this issue seems to be played out like someone's pulling strings from behind the stage.

There are some more January 17 coincidences on Steven Mizrach's third article about the Priory of Sion, at http://www.fiu.edu/~mizrachs/poseur3.html (look for January 17 on that page.)

Also here is a translated French page, with many more interesting connections about that date (sorry for the impossible link, it's the Google translation, comes out very funny too.)

There's an interesting story of St. Roseline of Villeneuve who died on Jan 17, and whose "rose-petal" tale is very similar to that of St. Germaine de Pibrac, whose statue stands at Rennes Castle. The name "Roseline" would of course be significant too.
